Abstract

Overview

The paper provides a critical analysis of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation sources such as Wi-Fi and cell phone towers in residential and business environments. It assesses various mitigation strategies and highlights significant health implications associated with electromagnetic fields (EMFs).

Findings

  • Wi-Fi shielding is revealed as an effective action against EMF-related health risks.
  • The placement of cell phone towers near habitable areas is scrutinized, focusing on their health impacts.
  • The phenomenon of electrical pollution and stray electrical currents is discussed, including mitigation techniques.

Conclusion

Adverse health effects due to EMFs from Wi-Fi and cell phone towers are emphasized, backed by significant studies and insurance industry reactions. A call for societal and legislative reforms to address these risks is detailed, with France's proactive EMF regulations serving as a model.
